Those that were there said they were blindsided at the last minute by the Mucks. Everyone thought there was a workable agreement in place that allowed for the opening in area 10, but at the last minute the tribe demanded it be closed along with the Lake Sammamish Chinook fishery. The reason used was possibly poor survival due to the low water and warmer temps expected this summer.

The impact that would have been used by the sportsman for area 10 was used elsewhere to expand other fisheries, I don't know where that was though.
